Robert Marko 78cf3e53b1 mvebu: add Globalscale MOCHAbin
Globalscale MOCHAbin is a Armada 7040 based development board.

Specifications:
* Armada 7040 Quad core ARMv8 Cortex A-72 @ 1.4GHz
* 2 / 4 / 8 GB of DDR4 DRAM
* 16 GB eMMC
* 4MB SPI-NOR (Bootloader)
* 1x M.2-2280 B-key socket (for SSD expansion, SATA3 only)
* 1x M.2-2250 B-key socket (for modems, USB2.0 and I2C only)
* 1x Mini-PCIe 3.0 (x1, USB2.0 and I2C)
* 1x SATA 7+15 socket (SATA3)
* 1x 16-pin (2×8) MikroBus Connector
* 1x SIM card slot (Connected to the mini-PCIe and both M.2 slots)
* 2x USB3.0 Type-A ports via SMSC USB5434B hub
* Cortex 2x5 JTAG
* microUSB port for UART (PL2303GL/PL2303SA onboard)
* 1x 10G SFP+
* 1x 1G SFP (Connected to 88E1512 PHY)
* 1x 1G RJ45 with PoE PD (Connected to 88E1512 PHY)
* 4x 1G RJ45 ports via Topaz 88E6141 switch
* RTC with battery holder (SoC provided, requires CR2032 battery)
* 1x 12V DC IN
* 1x Power switch
* 1x 12V fan header (3-pin, power only)
* 1x mini-PCIe LED header (2x0.1" pins)
* 1x M.2-2280 LED header (2x0.1" pins)
* 6x Bootstrap jumpers
* 1x Power LED (Green)
* 3x Tri-color RGB LEDs (Controllable)
* 1x Microchip ATECC608B secure element

Note that 1G SFP and 1G WAN cannot be used at the same time as they are in
parallel connected to the same PHY.

Installation:

Copy dtb from build_dir to bin/ and run tftpserver there:
$ cp ./build_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a72_musl/linux-mvebu_cortexa72/image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/
$ in.tftpd -L -s bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/

Connect to the device UART via microUSB port and power on the device.

Power on the device and hit any key to stop the autoboot.

Set serverip (host IP) and ipaddr (any free IP address on the same subnet), e.g:
$ setenv serverip 192.168.1.10 # Host
$ setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.15 # Device

Set the ethernet device (Example for the 1G WAN):
$ setenv ethact mvpp2-2

Ping server to confirm network is working:
$ ping $serverip
Using mvpp2-2 device
host 192.168.1.15 is alive

Tftpboot the firmware:
$ tftpboot $kernel_addr_r openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-initramfs-kernel.bin
$ tftpboot $fdt_addr_r image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb

Boot the image:
$ booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r

Once the initramfs is booted, transfer openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
to /tmp dir on the device.

Gunzip and dd the image:
$ gunzip /tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
$ dd if=/tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 && sync

Reboot the device.

Hit any key to stop the autoboot.

Reset U-boot env and set the bootcmd:
$ env default -a
$ setenv bootcmd 'load mmc 0 ${loadaddr} boot.scr && source ${loadaddr}'

Optionally I would advise to edit the console env variable to remove earlycon as that
causes the kernel to never use the driver for the serial console.
Earlycon should be used only for debugging before the kernel can configure the console
and will otherwise cause various issues with the console.

$ setenv console 'console=ttyS0,115200'

Save and reset
$ saveenv
$ reset

OpenWrt should boot from eMMC now.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
